Thanks Ripp. I will try and see some. My problem is I live in the country and it's hard to find somewhere with a few different makes to compare (whinge!). I mentioned Leica as they seem ok and are available in Singapore where I seem to pass through every couple months or less. They have a factory or warehouse out near Jurong on the west coast. I'm not in a hurry so will take a good look at the Swarovskis and compare suitability to me and price. The are lots cheaper in Singapore than here!. By the way, loved the buffalo photos you posted. I'm envious!
